Full House Poker..

[1jaxstate1]

Anyone one on this forum playing this on the 360? If so, is it a good game, or is it a slow game, like the WP7 version. Would anyone be up for a tournament?

i wasn't paying that much for it when i bought it on my focus. i would have rather paid the $10 if it was universal, for both wp7 and 360.

Yeah. I bought ilomilo for 10. its the only 360 mini game id pay that much for. Well maybe full tilt too, if more people were playing.

Same here. Why pay $10 when you can get essentially the same game on the phone for $5? It's better as a mobile title anyways.

The mobile title is ok. It's slow for a poker game and the blinds start off way too low. I'm sure the 360 version has more options and online play would be nice.

$3 actually!

Although, I would probably pay $5 if it had online play. I would think that's a huge selling feature of the 360 version. Also, the 360 version features Avatar Awards and featured scheduled tournaments with up to 30 people. Supposedly these tournaments are TV style live events. Plus, your WP7 winnings carry over to 360.

The 360 version's a lot nicer thanks to the stuff Litepink mentioned. It's significantly prettier too. But it plays slower due to all the avatar animations, so it's a little worse for actually making single-player progress. The AI is a lot harder on the 360 version too.
But online play is rad and the animations fit right in there since you're playing with other people who would be moving, making tells, and such.

Just curious, are they going to put a multiplayer in the mobile version?

We don't know for sure which games will receive multiplayer updates once Mango goes live. Hydro Thunder GO is extremely likely, but that's the only one that's really been hinted at/leaked so far.

I actually like the WP7 version of Full House Poker better. It's simpler and faster paced. I couldn't get into the 360 version because I had a tough time looking at my cards. Maybe it's because they're not on the HUD and are rendered with polygons. It'd be nice if they brought multiplayer to WP7.

You mean the 360 version is actually slower than the WP7! Yikes, I guess I won't be buying it then. The WP7 version is the slowest poker game sim I've ever seen.

I thought the WP7 version was pretty fast paced when it comes to making turns. The blinds are low so action wise is can be slow at first, but I like the speed of the game.

Thanks! I hope it does after the mango update.

I bought the 360 version but haven't tried it yet. We should schedule a poker night for WPCentral users and play online.

I played a ton over the weekend. It's good fun. I really like playing with real people vs bots. I'm all in for a tourney night. Just let me know when.

The Xbox 360 game is miles better than on the phone. don't get me wrong there is nothing better playing a little poker on the move. Also you can glitch the mobile game to get loads of money which will then be trasfered to the full 360 Arcade game.

Some jackass called my pocket QQ with 7 5 off suit, and hit a straight. *sigh* ALL IN

Are you saying you went all in before the flop? That's pretty aggressive. When you play online you have to call some of those or aggressive players will buy a bunch of pots and get an advantage.

 

[1jaxstate1]

Yeah. It was preflop. Everyone folded except him. Id never call that preflop.
